And I'm doing all of the work myself. Except about $1,000 for sandblasting. Rust free would have been nice. Also, not 'restored' 25 years ago. You ought to have seen the patches under the bondo!

If I had it to do again, I'd pay an extra, hmmm, $3,000 for one that didn't need the cab replaced, or the sandblasting, or all the patches welded in. And then feathering out my bondo, so none of it shows. But at least the front fenders were never even dimpled.

But then, I'm a minimalist. The only new truck I ever bought didn't cost me $4,000. In 1972 dollars.
